The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) warns that thousands of Palestinians buried under rubble in Gaza may never be identified due to decomposition and loss of forensic evidence. Gaza is estimated to have 61.5 million tonnes of debris, 20 times more than all conflict-generated rubble since 2008, with 73,000 reported killed and over 3,000 missing.
